In this case I would have added to the long id entry a note to the effect that the paragraph concerning the long id of a group also applied to the long id of controls contained in groups, even if the group was not explicitly mentioned. Did that feature disappear just because of the new implementation of the Dictionary, or was it killed because it needed moderation?
